Rz1563

note: Music for the similar a2 settings of ‘O dolce amor’ ed. in EynardLP, 76-7 (B207), and Diederichs (diplomatic transcr. of Ven, 401-3). Razzi transmits a vaguely related musical setting; ed. Mancuso, 733-8. Rz1563 & Ven versions ed. LuisiLG, ii, 83-5; text ed. i, 258-9. Cc. indication in Rs424 intended, but not entered. Lauda text entered in R2929, which was copied by 1448.

note: Lucrezia’s lauda predates her death in 1482.

note: see ‘Ecco’l messia’ and ‘Ben venga Maggio-a’ as cc for musical settings applicable to ‘Nel tuo furore’. The 4-part setting by Dammonis in PetL/i is ed. in JeppesenL, no. 89, and preserves a version of the Savonarolan melody ‘Ecce quam bonum’.

note: RostirollaB, 716 (‘Laudate Dio’). Version in the Roman sources is an arrangement by Animuccia of the traditional Carnival song melody and Florentine lauda text; facs. in RostirollaTL, 34.

note: alternate cc. = ‘Ecco’l bambino’ (LCS161). Lucrezia’s lauda predates her death in 1482.

note: alternate cc. = ‘Che fai qui core’ (LCS161). Lucrezia’s lauda predates her death in 1482.

note: lauda re. S. Geronimo [Girolamo]. Rz1563 transmits 2 musical settings, both underlaid with text of ‘Ecco’l Messia’; ed. Mancuso, nos. 9-10. ‘Con umil core’ attr. to d’Albizo in Gall2, Belcari in R196, but probably d’Albizo’s by virtue of its inclusion in LA424. In LA424, lauda sent to ‘Fra Girolamo jhesuato’. Though the the lauda is attributed in some sources to Belcari, it appears in an authoritative d’Albizo source (LA424) and is not included in Belcari’s laudario (M690).

note: lauda re. nativity. Lucrezia (Lorenzo de’ Medici’s mother) died in 1482, so this and all other laude by her were written by this time.

note: carnival song for May Day. Source for poem relates ‘Canzone d’Angelo Politiano di maggio; la quale s’aveva a chantare per donne nell’entrare de giostranti in campo: e coronandogli per loro amore giostravano’ (ed. MaceyS, 227). MaceyB, 57, 125f; LuisiBV, passim; CattinS, 270-1; CattinRP, 384-5; RostirollaB, 685. On the melodic tradition of ‘Ben venga Maggio’, esp. its relationshi[ to the ‘Tentalora’ melody; see LuisiT and LuisiCB. In Rz1563 w/text ‘Ecco’l Messia’; Pal173 w/’Ecco la stella’, and RC395 w/’Ecco’l signore’. Music ed. GallucciFFM, 1; MaceyS, 61-5 (w/alternate texts, ‘Ecco’l Messia’ & ‘Che fai qui core’); ed. and discussed in PerkinsMAR, 416-18. Osthoff, i, 153 fits Poliziano’s text to a2 music of ‘Ecco’l Messia’ in Rz1563. Cantus transmitted in Savonarola’s biographies (BML, San Marco 429 & BS Lucca 2415). Cf. Savonarolan laude ‘Che fai qui core’ & ‘Ecce quam bonum’, as well as many other lauda texts by Lucrezia Tornabuoni and others that draw on the music of ‘Ben venga Maggio’.

note: alternate cc. for ‘Signore’ = ‘O dolce redentore’ [=’Deh dolce redentore’, Rz1563]. See same title w/modo proprio. See also modo proprio for ‘Signore soccorr’et aita’, with music in Rz1563 (a4; ed. Mancuso, no. 11) & BR337, by Bartolomeo degli Organi (ed. D’AcconeMFR, ii, no. 40; here the text is ‘Signore, soccorr’ et aita l’anima mia’, and is ed. xxii-xxiii). See also MaceyB, 113 & MaceyS, 228.
